Family in Town

On Friday we had family come into town.  Beckett sure enjoys having his family all around him!  He is one loved little boy.

Beckett playing with Grandpa (or Papa as he calls him!).

Beckett and Nana building a tower! 

Special Delivery

Beckett and Momma love when the mail comes!  Momma is excited to see the things that she ordered online, while Beckett is excited to play with the box!

 Even Ellie the Dog got in on the fun today!

Fun in the Fall

In Brookings you do not see the season change much.  The leaves don't change colors and drop, like the do in other areas.  So last weekend Daddy and Mommy picked up some fall leaves, while they were in Corvallis.  Today Beckett made a collage with the leaves.

 He was very proud of his work!

 Then we made him a fall crown, with his name on it. 

 Yay for Fall!

Soup Swap

Tonight seven girlfriends came over for a Soup Swap.  All the ladies made 4 gallons of soup!  Then each one of us shared our recipe and had the group try the soup.     

 We had a blast eating all the yummy soup and having girl time. 

Everyone went home with six soups from the other ladies.  Now my freezer is stocked with all the soup I could ever dream of!

Overnight with Grandma

While Dad and Mom were at the Beaver game, Beckett stayed home with Grandma.  They had so much fun together!

 Grandma took Beckett to the park, where he found a new favorite swing. 

 They colored,

 made cookies,

 played with play dough,

 and Auntie even came and played too!!!

 Even though Beckett couldn't go to the game, he wore his OSU gear to support the team.

 The day ended with popcorn and

 a good night call to Dad and Mom. 

Thanks Grandma for watching Beckett!!

Beaver Game Day

Grant and I headed to Corvallis, for Beaver Game Day. 

First stop, breakfast with Uncle Eric.

Next stop, Reser's Tailgate!

 Final stop, Reser Stadium. 

We had a blast cheering on the Beavers, with our great pals!

Gobble Gobble

Today was a lazy day, so Beckett and I stayed home and made a Thanksgiving craft.  First we traced his feet on brown paper.

 Then we traced his hands

 and cut out the hand prints.

 Next it was glue time!  We glued the two feet together

 and added some hands.

 Finally we put on the face

 and there was a turkey!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Halloween 2011

This afternoon we headed to Daddy's office to start the Halloween festivities.

 We saw lots of friends there.

 And even a giant banana!  Our little monkey was a little scared of her. :)

 Good thing Grandma was there to protect Beckett.

 This evening we headed to the Nazarene Church, where they were having a Harvest Party. 

Here is Beckett getting all his tickets.

 There was a fishing pond,

a bubble room,

candy tree,

and even a Wheel of Fortune.

After all the games we went on a hayride.  Daddy was a little nervous that Mommy would go into labor after all that bouncing around.

We ended the evening going Trick-or-Treating at a few neighbor's houses. 

Then we headed home. 

Happy Halloween 2011!

Trip to Southern California

This week the Lundes made a quick trip down to Southern California, to attend Beckett's great grandfather's memorial service.  Here we are at the Medford airport at 4am.  Beckett was not quite awake yet!

 We had a layover in Portland, so Nana stopped by to have breakfast with us. 

 Our layover was so long, there was even time to play!

 We made it to California, where we went to Great Grandpa Conrad's church for the service.  Here is Beckett telling Auntie Tera what each color of the stain glass was.

The Whole Family

 Then it was time to fly home.  We calculated that at the end of this trip Beckett had flown 20 flights by 20 months old.  Time to sign him up for a frequent flyer card! 

We made it back to Medford, where we stopped by GG's house for a little fun.  Beckett always loves exploring her yard and finding new things. 

Yay for family!
